MAVIG GmbH
OT54 Cardio-Angio Ceiling Suspended Shield – Booth 4100, Hall A
MAVIG’s Radial and Femoral Access OT54 CardioAngio Shield combines a larger radiation protective lead acrylic shield with an overlapping flexible lead curtain panel that lays perfectly flush to the patient’s body and stops a significant proporation of scatter radiation coming from the patient. The new OT54 has two curved cut-outs for both radial and femoral artery access. Germany’s RöFo Publication recently evaluated the efficiency of the OT54 Shield with the flexible lead curtains and noted a dramatic dose reduction of the head and eyes of the operator. When the OT54 Shield is used in combination with the Patient Femoral or Radial Drapes a further dose reduction is noted.
